#1 Well of course they do. It's the same old Ba'ath Party isn't it? There's certainly no internal reason for it to do anything other than stay the same or off Baby Assad and shuffle the chairs is there?

Syrians will have to stand up on their hind legs and grow a pair if they want anything different. They can just stand still and maybe seethe or something for another 30 or 40 years while the rest of the Middle East, by force of arms or force of public will, passes them by.

#2 Assad must really be scared if he is even talking about this.
